Edwalton Food Hub CIC is a not-for-profit, community-led organisation providing free access to surplus food for the benefit of the local community. Surplus food received via Neighbourly is redistributed directly to individuals and households experiencing food insecurity. All food is provided for community support purposes only and is not sold or used for commercial gain. Distribution takes place through our food hub in a safe, inclusive, and dignified environment. Our service operates on a no-referral, no-eligibility and no-judgement basis. Access to food is never conditional, restricted, or dependent on payment, contribution, or participation of any kind. No individual is ever refused food due to an inability or decision not to contribute. From time to time, individuals may choose to make a voluntary donation to support the ongoing running of the organisation. Donations are entirely optional, unsolicited, and separate from food access. Any donations received are used solely to support the charitable objectives of Edwalton Food Hub CIC, including transport, storage, utilities, and maintaining daily operations. All activities are carried out in line with our community interest objectives, food safety requirements, and relevant regulations. Our purpose is to reduce food waste, support people facing food insecurity, and strengthen community resilience in a transparent and responsible manner

The purpose of Meet, Greet and Eat is to provide a safe and integrated environment for individuals with additional needs, those being learning difficulties and/or disability to come together and create a project they can call their own. Through working with surplus food, the individual will be part of a team who will cook, bake and provide light lunches and afternoon teas to the elderly and isolated in the community. This will give the individual the confidence and experience to step up to volunteering, work experience and/or paid employment with other organisations or business.

Betel offers a caring Christian environment where residents learn to care for and support one another as a family. They develop meaningful relationships in an atmosphere of acceptance and love, which, in turn, inspires self -esteem and hope for a new future. All Betel communities are peer 'motivated'. This means that those who have been in Betel longer care for and mentor newer residents. Having "been through it", their first hand experience serves as a powerful model and encouragement to others. The objectives is to help residents rebuild their own lives through community responsibility and shared decision making. As residents' motivation and stability improve, with time and experience, they are gradually given more responsibility for supervising household duties and monitoring daily work. Staff members live on site, and the majority of staff are recovered addicts themselves.
